Minutes-2/2/2016

Mike Ryan- Spoke about tiered minimum wage. Suppressing wages for kids and everyone is wrong. Mike advised that this ordinance is child exploitation and discrimination. Businesses will not absorb this cost, only consumers, and all these residents here tonight requesting to obey the Jo Co minimum wage are aware of this and like him are willing to pay a little more to allow people to make a living wage. Doug Boldt wanted to clarify that the Department of Labor is what Al Havens & Mike Ryan have referenced. Jo Kahler- Spoke about her position on the wage. Mayor Berner- advised he has a friend that is a Manager of a retail business, and the fact is that minors are being paid more but their hours are getting cut to offset the cost. Peggy Upton- She is torn on this issue, and appreciates the arguments from both sides. She agrees that the minimum wage should be increased and she doesn' t believe $ 10. 10 is a livable wage. She feels that in this community the impact of this ordinance is minimal and will not impact many people. She advised she represents everyone in the community, not just the low income; she also represents the business owners and all residents of Tiffin. She wanted to point out that working a first job gives you more than just money in your pocket. It provides real life experience, operate cash register/ equipment, learn how to work, how to be a valuable employee; you gain a lot from your first job and they are not always on your paycheck. Money isn' t the only thing.
